First Transfer!!!!!

Well, it happened! Elder Rob had his first transfer! He is now in Longview Washington about an hour from the coast. He left behind some great experiences and wonderful friendships. I have talked with one sister who is now my friend on facebook...Jeanette Goldie, as well as others...Elder Rob got close to her in their ward for the last 4 months and was sad to say their goodby's last tuesday night...but on Wednesday, he headed out for a new place, new companion and new people in the area of Longview. He will do great. I did get a wonderful phone call on Friday night from Glenda Henthorn...the elders live in a room at their home and she is a delight! She has made herself an extension of the elder's families and takes such good care of our young men. It was such a nice conversation with her. She also has a son serving in the Farmington/Ogden area and has been out just a month after Elder Rob...his name is Elder Brett Henthorn. It is such a nice comfort to know these young men are taken care of so that they can spend their time sharing the gospel and serving the Lord...today is Mother's Day and we are expecting our phone call from our missionary around 3:30pm and are soooo excited to talk to him...it is certainly a blessing to have a missionary in the mission field. Elder Rob has been out on his mission exactly 5 months today....19 more to go lol.

His address is 3506 Pennsylvania Street
Longview, Washington 98632

Living in the home of the Henthorn's
